Multiple (two or more) flux tubes are commonly observed inside and/or near the q = 1 flux surface in KSTAR tokamak plasmas with localized electron cyclotron resonance heating and current drive (ECH/CD). Detailed 2D and quasi-3D images of the flux tubes obtained by an advanced imaging diagnostic system showed that the flux tubes are m/n = 1/1 field-aligned structures co-rotating around the magnetic axis. The flux tubes typically merge together and become like the internal kink mode of the usual sawtooth, which then collapses like a usual sawtooth crash. A systematic scan of ECH/CD beam position showed a strong correlation with the number of flux tubes. In the presence of multiple flux tubes close to the q = 1 surface, the radially outward heat transport was enhanced, which explains naturally temporal changes of electron temperature. We emphasize that the multiple flux tubes are a universal feature distinct from the internal kink instability and play a critical role in the control of sawteeth using ECH/CD.

KSTARトカマクプラズマにおいて、局所電子サイクロトロン共鳴加熱・電流駆動(ECH/CD)を伴う場合、q = 1 磁気面の内部および/または近傍で、複数(2本以上)のフラックスチューブが一般的に観測される。先進的イメージング診断システムによって得られたフラックスチューブの詳細な2次元および準3次元画像は、フラックスチューブがm/n = 1/1の磁力線に沿った構造であり、磁気軸の周りを共回転していることを示した。フラックスチューブは典型的には互いに合体し、通常の鋸歯状振動の内部キンクモードのようになり、その後、通常の鋸歯状振動のクラッシュのように崩壊する。ECH/CDビーム位置の系統的走査は、フラックスチューブの数との強い相関を示した。q = 1 表面に近い複数のフラックスチューブが存在する場合、径方向外向きの熱輸送が増強され、これにより電子温度の時間変化が自然に説明される。我々は、複数のフラックスチューブが内部キンク不安定性とは異なる普遍的な特徴であり、ECH/CDを用いた鋸歯状振動の制御において重要な役割を果たすことを強調する。
